Daisy May Cooper steps back from Never Mind The Buzzcocks after welcoming her third child as new A-list guest captains are revealed

Never Mind the Buzzcocks will return for a fourth season on Sky Max later this year, but Daisy May Cooper will be taking a step back as captain of the team.

Actor and comedian Greg Davies returns to host the music-themed quiz show, with team captain Noel Fielding and regular panellist Jamali Maddix also returning.

However, Daisy will be replaced by Sophie Willan on the show until the This Country actress returns for the Christmas special

The captains are joined by celebrities from the world of music and comedy. Each of the specials has its own theme: the nineties, the noughties, rock and girl and boy bands.

The team captains are joined by guests, including Spice Girl Mel B for the Nineties episode.

It comes after Daisy gave a health update saying her newborn son Benji is doing ‘great’ after he was born ‘earlier than expected’ last month.

Little Mix star Perrie Edwards will join the Girl & Boy Bands special, while cultural icon and The Gossip frontwoman Beth Ditto will also appear in the 2000s episode.

Grunge goddess Courtney Love will take center stage in this episode celebrating all things rock.

Previously, Jade Thirwall, Shaggy, Pete Doherty, Ellie Goulding, Suggs and Little Mix’s Hannah Waddingham have appeared on the Sky series.

Speaking about the new series, presenter Greg Davies said: ‘I’m genuinely pleased to be returning to the chaos of Buzzcocks, but realistically, who reads these press quotes and why? Please watch the show and go on air between episodes, talk to your partner, read to your children. Live, for God’s sake live.’

It comes after Daisy gave a health update saying her newborn son Benji, who was born ‘earlier than expected’ last month, is doing ‘great’.

The actress said on Instagram that she is very grateful to everyone for their “beautiful messages.”

The comedy star shared a photo of herself holding Benji in her arms while still in the hospital, along with a comical update.

She wrote: ‘Update: ignore the areola the size of a dinner plate… little Benji is doing fantastic. Thank you so much for all your lovely messages xx.’

Daisy announced via social media on Thursday that her third child was born ‘a little earlier than expected’.

“What a bloody week…” she began her post alongside a video of mother and baby in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

“You came a little earlier than expected and I got such bad post-op constipation that I almost called the doctor, but my god, you are perfect.”

“I can’t thank @deliverysuitegrh enough. The way you guys took care of us during such a scary time was beyond expectations. You are all bloody superstars. I am so blessed. Welcome to the world little Benji, ya mad Born 06/06/24.”

Her video shows her being pushed by a nurse into the neonatal unit, where she bursts into tears when she sees her little one.

She was seen calling out “hi bubba” and reaching into his incubator to touch him.

She then shared adorable snaps of herself holding her newborn baby and having skin-to-skin contact while in the hospital.

Benji is Daisy’s first child with her boyfriend Anthony Huggins, and he was also seen holding their little one after the birth.

Her famous friends were quick to send her their congratulations in the post, including Holly Willoughby, Laura Whitmore and Sian Welby.
